Solution

The correct option is A Number of $e^{-} s$ in penultimate shell of d-block elements are $(1 - 10)$
Number of $e^{-}$ in penultimate shell of d-block element are $1 - 10$ .
Penultimate shell is d-orbital and d-orbital has $5$ subshells and each can carry $2 e^{-} s$ at the most. Hence number of $e^{-} s$ can be carried in this orbital is $10$ .

(i) Comprehension given below is followed by some multiple choice questions. Each question has one correct option. Choose the correct option. In the modern periodic table, elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic numbers which is related to the electronic configuration. Depending upon the type of orbitals receiving the last electron, the elements in the periodic table have been divided into four blocks, viz s, p, d, and f.
The modern periodic table consists of 7 periods and 18 groups. Each period begins with the filling of a new energy shell. In accordance with the Aufbau principle, the seven periods (1 to 7 ) have 2, 8, 8, 18, 18, 32, and 32 elements respectively.
The seventh period is still incomplete. To avoid the periodic table being too long , the two series of f-block elements, called lanthanoids and actionoids are placed at the bottom of the main body of hte periodic table
The element with atomic number 57 belongs to
(a) s- block ( b) p-block (c) d- block (d) f- block

(ii) The last element of the p - block in 6th period is represented by the outermost electronic configuration.
(a) $7 s^{2} 7 p^{6}$ (b) $5 f^{14} 6 d^{10} 7 s^{2} 7 p^{0}$
(c) $4 f^{14} 5 d^{10} 6 s^{2} 6 p^{6}$ (d) $4 f^{14} 5 d^{10} 6 s^{2} 6 p^{4}$

(iii) Which of the elements whose atomic numbers are given below, cannot be accommodated in the present set up of the long frm of the periodic table?
(a) 107 (b) 118 (c) 126 (d) 102

(iv) The electronic configuration of the element which is just above the element with atomic number 43 in the same group is .....
(a) $1 s^{2} 2 s^{2} 2 p^{6} 3 s^{2} 3 p^{6} 3 d^{5} 4 s^{2}$

(v) The elements with atomic numbers 35, 53 and 85 are all ..
(a) noble gases (b) halogens (c) heavy metals (d) light metals

Q. Nitrogen is restricted to a maximum covalency of

4

since only four (one s and three p) orbitals are available for bonding. The heavier elements have vacant d orbitals in the outermost shell which can be used for bonding (covalency) and hence, expand their covalence as in

P F_{6}^{-}

Q. An element of p-block in which last electron enters into s-orbital of valence shell instead of p-orbital is:

Which of the following statements related to the modern periodic table is incorrect?
(a) The p-block has 6 columns, because a maximum of 6 electrons can occupy all the orbitals in a p-shell.
(b) The d-block has 8 columns, because a maximum of 8 electrons can occupy all the orbitals in a d-subshell.
(c) Each block contains a number of columns equal to the number of electrons that can occupy that subshell.
(d) The block indicates value of azimuthal quantum number (l ) for the last subshell that received electrons in building up the electronic configuration.

Q. Bohr 's shell model also explained why some of the elements in the periodic table are chemically inert. This is because the outermost shell of the atom is full. These elements are called ______.
